18. I was just coming here to ask something similar when I saw your post.

Thank you for your caring for your German Shepherd and your kitty. This weather is unnerving.

Know that I have stopped and added you and yours to my prayers for the night.

I have a cat sanctuary in Texas, and although our cold fronts are pretty wimpy compared to the ones in the northern part of the country, we will be having a combination of wet AND cold this weekend, and that combination is difficult for animals to adapt to when it cools so quickly. It was 72 today and it will be 22 by Sunday morning.

I have prepared them as much as I can. But there are seven kitties who are feral and they won't go inside the building that we have that is heated. They have many options, but it still breaks my heart. We also have some barn cats that were here when we bought the property. They also have options. I have been able to get three of the barn cats inside in the garage but the other three are not touchable.

So, if I may impose on your thread, my I also ask for prayers for my seven little stinkers in the sanctuary and my three barn kitties? And while we are at it, can we all please pray for those babies who do not have a place to call home? And those who have owners who won't take the proper precautions for them?

It's going to be a long weekend...

Hugs!!!

Yes, you can pray, but since animals have souls, a divine spark, you should try Karadeniz Friday #17
